SUMMARY:Are the Parameters of the Standard Model fine-tuned for Carbon-based Life? -- Prof. Dean Lee
DESCRIPTION:Departmental Colloquium. I discuss some recent results obtained using ab initio lattice simulations of effective field theory to probe nuclear structure. I present recent lattice calculations of the Hoyle state of 12C and whether or not light quark masses must be fine-tuned for the viability of carbon-based life.
